Gold All Over the Ground

And ladies and gentlemen
 Here's the one I need, the inspiration for it
 Miss June Carter
 What do you say!
 If I had you at my mercy
 There's no telling what I'd do
 But I'd sit and make you listen
 For an hour, maybe two
 And then you'd know I need you
 Every day that rolls around
 And your feet would walk on velvet
 With gold all over the ground
 ♪
 You're trails would be downhill
 A soft breeze at your back
 A sky full of diamonds
 And your nights would not be black
 Yes, you would really love it
 And if you're ever down
 I'd give you rows of roses
 And gold all over the ground
 ♪
 I'd pick you up and carry you 'cross every stream I see
 And I'd bundle you in kindness
 Until you cling to me
 We'd sit beneath strong branches
 My arms would twine around
 I'd turn your green to emerald
 And give you gold all over the ground

 She's not only a lady who I share my life with
 But she may have been the person
 Responsible for me still being alive
 She and God
